Barry's birthday Tigers game

Our seats were by the foul pole on the left field side. After seeing the game on TV the night before, we could tell that it was going to be a cold one! Fortunately, we could plan ahead! I had on 5 layers and we brought a blanket. We both had the same sweatshirts -- we had Barry's from last October's trip to MI and mine was given as an early birthday gift.

We were right by the Tiger's bull pen. We saw Zumaya warm up and pitch 2 innings after coming back from the DL. The Tigers lost 8-6 to the Yankees (losing 2 of 3 games).



One funny thing was as we were leaving a loud siren started going off and instructing people to leave at the nearest exit. People at the gates were asking what was going on, but no one knew. I guess it was a false alarm. In any case, we were leaving anyway. We found out later that a whole bunch of people left and then the Tigers showed up and scored 5 runs. Too bad the excitement occurred after we left!
